Uranium Institute News Briefing 98.26

[NB98.26-18] A panel of US experts has concluded that electricity pylons and
power lines do pose a cancer risk. After 10 days of discussions and
consideration of evidence, 19 out of 28 members of a panel of the National
Institutes of Health voted that electric fields should be considered possible
human carcinogens; eight of the dissenters were undecided about whether a link
exists. (Independent, 26 June, p7)
